The house passed a measure to determine entrance eligibility for housing. Families with total income of 3200 dollars or more must move within six months. The calculation allows 2000 for the principal wage earner, 600 for dependents, and 600 for potential income of dependents. Rural Republicans opposed the measures with leaders Longenecker and Peirce leading the attack. Representative O Neill supported nonpartisan consideration.
